Ukrainian armed forces had fired over 600 artillery shells to Donetsk People Republic territory within the last 24 hours. Both DNR and LNR have declared military mobilisation and started a full-scale evacuation of civilians to Russia.
So, the nazi motherf*ckers have finally started it, stupid suicide bastards! We will wipe the floor with them now.
Your brilliant brainwasging media would never tell you who has started this war of course. A couple days after they will cream their and your pants with headliners like "Russia has finally started its invasion!" Just like they did in 2008 when Russia has intervenued to stop massacring of Russian peacekeepers and South Ossetian civilians by Saakashvili's army.
Back then it took us five days to crush Georgian so-called army (trained, equiped and supplied by USA). I give Ukraine three days now and I might be a very generous here.
The stupid imbecile nazi lackeys of yours are just doing what you command to them even realizing that it is a suicide for them!
Amazing idiots!
Ok! They will pay now!

Hmmm....Russia masses close to 200,000 troops on your boarder and you have virtually no chance of stopping them if they choose to invade. What should you do? Start artillery fire into the contested region! Yes! That's the answer!

Serb, have you ever considered that there may be more involved here than you are aware of? Do you really consider that the Russian side of the story is 100% accurate? Do you feel like you have to totally hold the Russian line because we in the west refuse to consider both sides of an issue?

Soviet-era automaker Lada suspends production

In a sign of Russia's growing isolation, domestic automaker Lada is halting production on its factory floors.

The company says crippling Western sanctions mean it can no longer gather the parts and supplies it needs.

Founded in Soviet Russia in 1973, the iconic brand is well-known in the region for its affordability.

During his second stint as prime minister, Vladimir Putin was often photographed driving Lada models and calling on all Russians to buy one. "You won't regret it," he said in 2010.

The company is owned by French carmaker Renault but its vehicles are assembled by local automobile manufacturer AvtoVAZ.

Lada accounted for 21% of auto sales in Russia last year.

Doesn't matter because Serb owns a Lexus.

I believe that, even if Serb thinks otherwise, he will be well advised not to post it.

After all, if russian authorities are able to make a connection between Serbs nick here and real life serb,
and he would write anything that contradicted russian state propaganda,
Serb may end behind bars for up to 15 years, for speaking out the truth ehm I mean, "spreading fake news"

Actually he already may be in danger of this ...
AFAIK he never contradicted that all this is a war or an invasion and not just a limited military operation.

And this (i.e. making a connection between Serb and his Apolyton account) may happen very fast, if Serb posts on Apolyton from his Smartphone ...
after all, russian police now is allowed to seize peoples smartphones in order to look what they are posting and texting

(but maybe this is, why we only hear from Ser on the weekends ... maybe he took security measures to only post from his personal computer at home, in order to not get in danger of authorities searching his office PC and/or his Smartphone and finding out that he has contact to people rom outside russia ehm I mean, that he is under the influence of foreign propagandists

[PLATO]

You know...I had never really thought about the fact that Serb having an open mind might put his life in danger. That is a truly sobering thought. Let's hope he uses Tor.

[Wezil]

If the Russian authorities would persecute/prosecute Serb for what he has posted here then they have some serious problems. Serb is a loyal Putinite.

Russia claims Ukraine staged Mariupol hospital bombing
More from Russia's claims about the bombing of a maternity and children's hospital in Mariupol - they are now saying the incident was staged by Ukraine.

Three people - two adults and a girl - were killed and 17 were wounded in the devastating strike.

Speaking on Rossiya 24 news channel, Russian defence ministry spokesman Igor Konashenkov said "absolutely no missions to hit targets on the ground by Russian aviation in the Mariupol area were carried out".

He then claimed: "The alleged airstrike that took place is a completely orchestrated provocation to maintain anti-Russian excitement among the Western audience."

But earlier today (see our post just before 11:00GMT) Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said that the hospital was a legitimate military target because it had been "taken over" by Ukrainian radicals and "all the mothers and nurses were chased out of there".


President Volodymyr Zelensky said Lavrov's claim was a lie and called the strike a war crime.

Sounds like Igor Konashenkov (and Lawrow) is a lot like Comical Ali (= Baghdad Bob).
At least when it comes to inventing absurd stories.

Unfortunately he isn't as comical as Comical Ali
